When your taking a photo with a camera, your not getting all the camera view right?
I mean in a portrait photo take
I will have much more hight then a landscape photo:
Where ill have much more width, right?
But the camera is a circle so that means the the image can be actuality taken with a larger area, I mean the hight and the width together!
The camera is probably getting the hole image, but cropping it according to the screen, landscape or portrait.
If i would like to get the full image that the camera is getting, how can i achieve that?
Any suggestions would be much appreciated, thanks!
Edit
After a long search that came out with nothing so far, even if someone knows about a way to display a landscape camera, in a portrait mode, that would help to. What i mean is display a view were there is more to see on the left and right sids, hope i'm clear enough with my question..

Actually, the sensor has roughly the same proportions as the screen. Its aspect ration is around 1.33 (4/3) or maybe 1.5 (3/2), depends on the phone model. the only round thing in the camera is the lens that projects a circle of light around the sensor. When you rotate your phone the sensor is naturally rotated as well so you always get the full output in every shot.
